    After 7 days of messing with my new cheater....I finally have it working and the gun is firing For the love of god I thought I was going to go crazy trying to get this thing to work!!! I tried soooo many different things...but of coarse...it's always the simplist things that get overlooked. I think the problem was that I had my rear thumb screw too tight and it was pulling the back of the valve down, angling it up slighty, and just enough to increase the pressure on the sear...ah ****! Prior to realizing this, I did tear down the cheater and reset the valve gap, but I do believe the real culprit was the over tightened thumb screw.

    Thank you so much for all the help guys...it was much appreciated and this is why I love this site so much

    Thanks again,

    Jason

      Jason. let me guess a ULE'd rail right? You may want to check the inside of the body to see if there are scuff marks on the upper portion. If not avoid going Rambo tight on the thumb screw. 1/4 turn pass snug is a good rule....

        The rail is just a AM/MM rail. I never thought I was over tightening it but I guess I was wrong.
        I'm starting to think this is why I had issues trying to get my gun to RT consistently. There were times when it would rip and then it would not...lesson learned and I'm a little bit smarter I hope!
